Principles

  1. Verify, don't rate. Presented evidence is verified, not agents or vendors.
  2. Free and without an account. Permanently, with no limit other than fair use.
  3. Local. Evidence does not leave the browser. No cookies, no tracking.
  4. Open. Engine, specification and test vectors are public.
  5. Honest. “Not checked” is never reported as “valid”.
  6. Versioned. Rules only change with a new policy version.

Relationship with the reference implementation

The commercial reference implementation comes from the same company. It is verified here by the same rules as any other implementation; references to it are marked as a note from the operator. How the separation works

Brand

The brand is KYA – Know Your Agent. The mark is the golden guilloche rosette on navy, the pattern that proves authenticity in the security printing of identity documents.

Please do not alter the mark or colors, and do not use KYA as an endorsement of a specific implementation.
